Headteacher's Welcome Welcome back! I hope you all had a good half term break.
We have now received our Ofsted report and are able to share it with you. The report provides a summary of the findings of the two day inspection in December. We are very pleased that the report acknowledges so much of the wonderful work that our staff do to ensure the very best for our children. The feedback from parents we received during the inspection was incredibly positive - thank you! We are very proud that our school has been described as 'a caring, nurturing and inclusive school' and that our high expectations for both behaviour and learning outcomes has been acknowledged - it is also great to hear that 'pupils enjoy coming to school!' You can read the full report here:-
It's been a fun week in school this week. Bears had an optician visit as part of the topic 'People who help us' and today the children have had a fantastic time in the Chinese Dragon Dance workshop.
